That looks like it might get caught on a lot, good to see if was a simple fix.

Mike, let me know if you want to sell the thumb safety. I could use a spare one.

Ordered my first fun wheel gun and need opinions on red dot sights. What do you have and why do you like or dislike it? Right now I'm leaning towards a vortex solely on the fact that their warranty is so great.

I have seen the urban carry and am not a fan. I know they say that the draw is fast, but I have my reservations vs a regular holster. I also don't like the fact that the draw (no matter who fast) requires 2 hands. You might find yourself in a scenario where you are using your weak hand to create distance between you and an attacker while drawing with your strong hand. I have a tendency to stick with a traditional holster design and avoid all of the "latest and greatest". Take the time, do the research and order a good holster the first time out (with a good gunbelt).

I can't speak for their handgun sights, but I have a vortex on my AR and it is a great sight that didn't break the bank. Made in the US and lifetime warranty, even if you break it! What's not to like?

My EDC is a commander 1911. I also have a Glock 22, but the 1911 carries and conceals better for me.

For the first time in years I walked into a store today (Bass Pro) and bought .22lr ammo. No limits, no crazy prices, no random brands in little ziploc bags with no names. Just a bulk box of 325 Federal.

It may be different where you're at, but in Michigan, it's been a long time since I've been able to do that and not pay $1 a round.

Ammo has been getting better in Pa that is for sure. 22 Lr is around and 9mm has come down in price. .380 is still up there but its getting better.

I know right! Earlier this week I stopped in at a Dunhams and they had hundreds of thousands of 22 rounds. I was able to grab a brick of thunderbolts and a hundred round count of shorts for a normal price. Don't get me wrong though, we have a shop up the road that has plenty but you're going to pay nine bucks for a pack of fifty.

Here's my first 38 super. Picked it up this past wednesday after being delayed on my forty-four-seventy-three. Haven't decided if it's a safe queen or a shooter.
